My good skillet has gone missing.
DH even looked for it too, so I am not losing it. Well the skillet I have lost. Where the heck is it????

Not sure it this was a good day or not. I do not have a work space. They knew that I was coming over for a month now. The manager who hired me transferred the Friday before I did. So today I find out that the hours we agreed to is not what they want me to do. I am about 1 1/2 hours away from the kids school with the eveing traffic. With what I had agreed upon that allowed me to get home with about 15 minutes to spare. Now they are wanting me to come in thirty minutes later so therefore I ...

Zachary told me about 45 minutes ago that two people in his class had a bad day. The conversation went like this
Zachary: Mom, I know two people that had a bad day.
Me: Oh no, who was it?
Z: Starts with a S

Me: Why did she have a bad day?
Z: I dont know but she said she was a loser.
Me: She said that? Thats said
Z: Yes she did

Z: Nothing (shrugging his shoulders)
Me: ...

I meant to post this the other day but my puter crashed so I forgot

Had weigh-in on Tuesday, wasn't as bad as I thought. I did put on 600gms which was pretty good considering I've been channeling PacMan for a month Back on track now.

Also only have to lose 10kgs (22lbs) to get to goal However, I think I'll make it 12kgs....because if I only lose 10, I'll be right at the top of my healthy weight range for my height...and I really am not "big-boned". ...

Half way there....I feel like I am hitting a wall. I am sick of the drink. Having a hard time getting it down today.

Weight loss as of this morning.....8.2 lbs.

I am hoping to hit 10 tomorrow!! Doubtful...but a girl can hope.

I was thinking about not starting my job for 6 more weeks when suddenly I realized the silver lining. I may be starting 6 weeks later, but my insurance will begin April 1. Only one month different if I had started this week.
The insurance is the important part. The part that will save us darn close to $650 a month, and then my salary on top of that.
Plus I have 6 weeks to find childcare. The first 6 weeks of training my hours will be 12-9 (unless they change my class on me) and ...

Another yummy treat! 0 pts.

Kevin and I usually don't do anything for our anniversary. We acknowledge it, but we usually don't do gifts or go out. Since our tenth anniversary is approaching, we both felt it was appropriate to do something more than typical.

Kevin suggested all four of us go out to dinner (Outback!), but set the table for 6....in honor of the girls' due date that same day.

I couldn't handle that. Being in a restaurant and having 2 empty places. The waitress would be confused ...

7 years ago today at 4:38pm I gave birth to you, my Little Monkey Caleb.

I am so incredibly proud of how you are growing and learning. You are unique, you are you, and I wouldn't change a single thing.

Happy Birthday to my little dream come true... I love you Bub.

Safety manager! I know it's not a huge promotion or anything but hey that's awesome!! He's also officially the foreman in the company and runs a 6 man crew. this is what my DH needs right now - something uplifting, a boost of self esteem and the guys all look up to him (they even call him boss)

He is so happy right now. He has to attend a few seminars for the company and get everyone & everything in gear for the safety. When working for a large utility company, safety ...
